Kristen Stewart has revealed her Twilight co-star Taylor Lautner has a tendency to be “so picky”.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, the 19-year-old said Lautner had never tried sushi before the pair met.

But Stewart, who plays Bella Swan in The Twilight Saga, defended the 17-year-old's fastidiousness - and said it helped shape who he was.

“He’s so picky. I was the first person who got him to eat sushi. He’s very set in his ways,” she said.

“But that is very informative of his personality. He’s very steady. He has a really solid sense of himself.”

As Entertainmentwise reported earlier, Lautner, who plays werewolf Jacob Black, appears on the cover of the latest issue of Rolling Stone.

The actor discusses his much talked about relationship with singer Taylor Swift in the interview.
